It's about time!
WASHINGTON (Friday, October 29, 2004) — Today, President George W. Bush signed a new law that prohibits colleges and universities that discriminate against students enrolled in the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) from receiving research grants or other funding from the U.S. Department Homeland Security. The legislation, authored by the Chairman of the Homeland Security Committee, Rep. Christopher Cox (R-CA), was included as part of the FY05 Defense Authorization Act.
“This new law makes it clear that if you discriminate against the U.S. Armed Services, you should not try to cash in on U.S. taxpayer funds for national defense, intelligence, and homeland security,” Chairman Cox explained. “These reforms will help protect students’ freedom of choice, and protect our Armed Services from on-campus discrimination.”
